VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:39 Mar 07, 2008 Jkt 214001
maintain the uniform standards and
professional image expected of DoD
firefighters. The uniform items for
firefighters include the following items
or similar items such as: Work shirts,
work pants, work t-shirts, work coat,
work cap, belt, dress shirts, dress pants,
dress coat, dress shoes, dress hat, dress
tie, weather gear, tie clips, tie bars, rank
insignia, badges, patches, and name
tags. The itemized total uniform cost for
the listed items is $1604.14. Based on
these current costs, the Department is
proposing to increase the limit to the
initial maximum uniform allowance for
uniformed firefighter personnel to
$1600.00. The number of firefighters
affected by this change in the
Department would be approximately
900 employees annually. The proposed
effective date of this higher initial
maximum uniform allowance rate is
June 9, 2008.
